"We thoroughly enjoyed the views and experience of Chesapeake Bay as a family. The natural surroundings of the bay spoke to my need to connect with nature, US history, my family, and my partner. The house was accommodating and well kept which was much appreciated for a family such as ours that is extended, loves to spend time, and cook together. We had all of the luxuries of feeling at home but being away all the same, with the space we all needed for comfort. I would recommend this house for the...
